Michael D. Swistowicz, age 74 of Buckeye, AZ passed away July 31, 2020 after a ten-year battle with cancer. He was born on March 31, 1946 to Michael and Eleanor Swistowicz in Chicago, Illinois. He is survived by his beloved lifelong partner Cheryl S. Mizera-Swistowicz, loving brother James (Sue) and sisters Karen (Robert) Konrath and Pam (Tom) Rybarczyk. He was a fond uncle of many nieces and nephews. After Michael retired as a Chicago Police Officer and Coast Guard Charter Boat Captain-which he was very proud of both, he moved to Buckeye, Arizona where he spent 15 years of his retirement. He loved riding in the beautiful Arizona deserts in his UTV, Lake Michigan and NASCAR. There will be private services held at a later date.
